Genesis Turf Shock Pads
The US is back to shock pads. It is not just a European trend but a practical solution for sensitive applications. Genesis Shock Pads are the ultimate way to add safety and resilience to the artificial grass surface. In the sports industry, shock pads are often referred as an “insurance policy.” According to FIFA-endorsed regulations, the shock-attenuation testing (or G-Max) is recommended for every sports field. Genesis Shock Pads assist in achieving a set G-max rating. You may also want to consider our new shock pads in residential landscaping for three fundamental reasons:
1. Increased Safety and Softness
Shock pads help to prevent and or reduce injuries and traumas. While required for athletes and children, homeowners may love to feel smooth and delicate surface under their feet as well.
2. Less Infill – Higher Resilience
Infill can migrate on the turf surface. It happens more often in heavy traffic areas. Shock pads reduce the amount of infill (and subsequent infill splash) by lowering the height of the fiber pile and increasing the density of the pile itself. The concept of having shock pads inside infill itself had changed due to low shock-attenuation levels and extensive maintenance. Today, most business owners regard shock pads like just like an extra insurance.
3. Ideal For Putting Greens
8mm thick shock pads are perfect for putting greens. Easy to install, it reduces the amount of infill and improves consistent ball roll for putting and durability for chip shots. Want your clients to be happy with GO-PRO putting greens real game experience?

Artificial Turf Growing Popularity in Miami and Ft. Lauderdale Florida
/1 Comment/in Blog, Genesis Turf, News /by Lee RummageArtificial Turf Growing Popularity in Miami and Ft. Lauderdale Florida
Artificial turf has been popping up around Miami and Ft. Lauderdale more and more rapidly as of late,

and it appears to be a trend that has no slowing down. It may be because more people are seeking to have that beautiful yard next door without having to mow their lawn under the sun’s sweltering, unrelenting heat. It may be because water rates in Florida continue to rise, and artificial turf lets you do away with that sprinkler system for good. It may even be that more and more businesses are realizing that traditional grass just doesn’t look as good as today’s advanced artificial grass, and they’re missing out on customers as a result. Whatever it is, the trend doesn’t seem to be falling off anytime soon—and here’s why.
Artificial Grass is Cleaner and Safer
Throughout Miami and Ft. Lauderdale, home owners, rental property owners, playgrounds and businesses are all realizing that artificial grass is the best option for their property. When you install the soft, synthetic blades of artificial turf, you’re ensuring that everyone visiting is safer. Unlike gravel, mulch, or traditional grass, artificial turf will not wear away over time, resulting in unsightly pathways or dangerous ruts. As a result, there will be less trips and falls—and if falls do occur, which is inevitable in a very active area such as a playground, there will be no bruised knees or scraped palms.
When it rains you don’t want your home or business to become a muddy, slogging marshland, and artificial turf does a tremendous job of draining any water almost immediately. While natural grass creates puddles and mud, the draining system of artificial turf lets water drain below the surface and out of your yard. This also prevents disease-carrying insects from making your grass their home.
Spend Time Doing What You Love, Not Mowing Your Lawn
In areas like Miami and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, where the sun is always shining and the grass is always growing, artificial turf

provides its biggest benefits. You will never have to pull another mower out of your shed and spend time and effort dragging it across your lawn. Weed whackers are a thing of the past, and you can spend time sipping a cold drink instead of sweating in the sweltering heat. In addition, if you are a rental property owner, your maintenance time and costs have just become next to nothing. Artificial turf pays for itself over and over again as you do not have to employ a crew to take care of your landscaping. Maintenance for artificial turf is as easy as periodically removing debris with a leaf blower, or even just occasionally picking up a twig here or there. As the icing on the cake, you’ll never have to pay for fuel, oil, or equipment again.
Long Lasting and Environmentally Friendly
Artificial turf is an incredible long-term investment, and with proper (minimal) maintenance, it can last for as long as 26 years. Modern artificial turf is extremely durable, and it looks identical to a well-kept lawn. 26 years’ worth of water is a massive amount that you’ll be conserving, along with all of the carbon footprints mentioned above. In addition, you will never have to apply any dangerous pesticides, weed killers, or fertilizers to your lawn—which is especially important if you have any children around. You can also advertise that you’re going green and helping the environment, which your customers or family members will certainly appreciate.

Looks Amazing and is Cost Effective
Modern artificial turf allows you to sit back and take in the beautiful scenery of your lawn, and it is especially useful for retired
individuals who would rather relax than worry about yard upkeep. The incredible investment pays off year after year through energy and water conservation, cost-cutting on any tools or equipment that you would normally need to purchase for maintenance, and ultimately the time investment that you would be making by constantly trimming, pruning, and cutting your lawn. Constantly advancing technologies and methods have made installing artificial grass very easy and convenient, and as a result, it’s spreading all over Miami and Ft. Lauderdale. Next time you drive down the street and see an amazingly maintained lawn, remember how likely it is to be artificial turf and how hard it is to tell the difference.

Can Artificial Turf Make Your Playground Safer?
/0 Comments/in Blog, Genesis Turf, News /by Lee RummageCan Artificial Turf Make Your Playground Safer?
It’s noon, and it’s time for recess. Everyone bounds excitedly for the playground.

The kids are playing a game of tag, circling the merry-go-round, vying for position. You’re sitting by supervising and inevitably, feet get tangled and someone takes a spill—knee
first, palms scraping against the ground. You instinctually hop to your feet to care for the scrapes, scratches, and bruised egos, but the kids get up immediately and get back to the game. No injuries, no dirt or stains, and no problems. Artificial playground turf is doing its job keeping your kids safe. It’s a situation you’ll find yourself in time and time again. Below are six more reasons why you’ll be glad you made the change to artificial turf.
Genesis artificial playground turf systems last longer than any other turf options available, even with daily use. All the heavy jumps, quick turns, and other repeated use won’t displace your turf in the same way as mulch, gravel, or dirt. Artificial grass won’t become worn into unsightly pathways or patchy messes like it would with traditional grass. Instead, artificial playground turf holds up remarkably well against tough play and rough weather. Your grass will look great, stay clean, and last for years with minimal to zero maintenance.

Installing artificial grass will dramatically decrease cleanup time for your kids and your playground. You will never have to worry about huge, unsightly puddles as modern artificial turf has incredible drainage capabilities. Superior turf design allows water to drain directly to the water table instead of piling up on top of the surface. This prevents your playground from becoming a messy, muddy swamp. No more mud tracks through the hallways, no more soaking wet kids, and most importantly, no more bacteria or disease-carrying insects gathering on the top of the waterlogged grass surface.
When you install gravel, mulch, asphalt, pour-n-play, or even traditional patchy grass, you put your kids at an increased risk for injury. Soft, synthetic blades on artificial playground turf decrease the likelihood of scratches, bumps, bruises, or even more serious injuries. After extended use, especially around areas like a merry-go-round, any other surface deteriorates, creating dangerous ruts in the ground. The smooth, even, durable surface of artificial grass helps to prevents falls and injuries. When falls do occur, the structural padding creates a soft cushion. Parents, teachers, and loved ones will all feel much safer when their kids are playing on artificial turf.
You will never need to apply chemicals to your artificial playground turf. Often a quick run of a leaf blower or rake is all that is

needed to clear away debris (or often just a few moments of your time to pick up a few sticks), and a quick spray with water will remove anything more resistant. You will never need to apply any harsh fertilizers, pesticides, or weed killers like you would on a natural grass surface. There are no chemicals needed for any cleaning or maintenance which makes it ideal for any area where children will be playing. In addition, allergies will never be an issue. No child will have to stay indoors as your artificial grass is hypoallergenic, antimicrobial, and safe.
You can teach your children about conservation, recycling, and promoting a clean environment through your use of artificial turf. First and foremost, artificial grass conserves a tremendous amount of water. You will never need to water your turf or put out a sprinkler system, and any rainwater will drain directly below the surface. Also, recycled grass is often used in creating your artificial turf, and it can be used as a tool to drive home the importance of reusing and recycling. Finally, the reduced maintenance will help conserve fossil fuels from weed-whackers and lawn mowers.

Not only is artificial grass easy and inexpensive to install, but it pays for itself remarkably as time goes on. The reduced maintenance costs are apparent every day that you do not need to mow, trim, or water your turf. Imagine breaking free of those expensive landscape maintenance companies. The durable materials last for years, even with tremendous use. You will also get more use out of your turf, as it is available year-round and never out of commission. Families will be excited to come to your playground to enjoy a clean, safe environment, and you’ll have no problem exceeding their expectations.

Top 2018 Backyard Design Trends
/0 Comments/in Blog, Genesis Turf /by Lee RummageTop Trends in Backyard Designs
In 2018 many homeowners are looking to update the look and feel of their backyard. All of the new flashy trends can feel overwhelming and at times just unnecessary. Here we will explore some ways to add a great new look and feel for your backyard or relaxation space without being overwhelmed. These practical solutions will add appeal and value to any home.
Eco-Friendly Designs:
Being environmentally conscious is on the rise and maintaining a beautiful lawn is no exception. Between worrying about your water usage, wondering about the negative effects of chemicals in your weed killer or insecticide, or simply shelling out money every month on water bills and/or a lawn service really adds up. With all this to consider, artificial grass has become a popular alternative to natural grass. As the industry leader in synthetic lawns, Genesis Turf is happy to offer artificial grass solutions that look natural, are ideal for children, pets and are 100% recyclable. Producing the best artificial grass in the industry, and complimenting elegant landscape designs, Genesis Turf will satisfy your search for a minimal maintenance outdoor living space. Looking to incorporate a synthetic lawn or artificial grass this year? Genesis Turf offers multiple solutions to increase property value and keep more money in your pocket.
Patio and Roof Lawns:
Converting an outdoor area into a relaxing green-space is a quick way to add value and relaxation to your home. Whether you have a patio or a roof top area to call your own, you can have that green-space you desire. Covering a drab cement slab with luxury artificial grass will transform a space into something people want to spend time on. The manicured no maintenance patio and roof top lawns offer a relaxing green space to sunbath, enjoy a cup of coffee, let your pet relieve itself or offer a soft space for children or pets to play. This past year, we have seen an uptick in clients looking to add some green space to their limited outdoor areas. At Genesis Turf, we offer grass solutions that offer an alternative to and often lasts longer than traditional outdoor decking.
Outdoor Dining:
Imagine an outdoor dining area on your porch or patio. Dine while surrounded by a nice garden, lush landscaping and a BBQ or outdoor kitchen. Creating a relaxing place to eat and entertain outdoors has become a sought-after pursuit. Spending this valuable time outside not only encourages family bonding time, but it also helps you get much needed Vitamin D from the sunlight. Eating “Al Fresco” is also known to be a natural mood booster. For clients looking to create a lush garden with a beautiful synthetic lawn that stays green all year round and cuts down on their water bill, we suggest choosing one of our 11 styles of grass options. In addition to the realistic looking grass, some clients enjoy getting creative with paver stone or mosaics to add some artistic touches into the mix. Your new outdoor entertaining area will soon become the envy of the neighborhood.
Open Air Living Rooms:
Outdoor living isn’t exactly a new concept, but ways of going about it are. From retractable roofs to sliding walls, builders and designers are continuing to find more and more ways to let the fresh air in, and why not? Fresh air has been known to clear lungs and increase lung capacity. Depending on where you live, the air may also contain Phytoncides which are natural chemicals emitted by some trees and plants known to reduce cortisol, the stress hormone in humans. Additionally, sunlight can also induce serotonin, the happy chemical in our brain. Open air living rooms can increase the benefits yielded from fresh air and sunlight. At Genesis Turf, our clients can count on us to provide the right artificial grass to complement their open-air living room spaces. Genesis Turf provides soft, realistic artificial grass to complement outdoor furniture, relaxation areas, or complete landscape solutions. Pets will feel right at home since all of our turf options are antimicrobial and 100% pet friendly.
If it’s time to update your outdoor space and you are ready to nix the pricy water bill while being environmentally responsible, give Genesis Turf a call at 855-887-3435 to explore high quality and natural looking artificial grass solutions.
